I used to say that Sonnet 4.5 was all I would ever need, but now I exclusively use Opus...

It sounds that I'm joking, but I'm not -- would it be so weird if those surgeons wore diapers?

Some probably do. External catheders are also an option.

To me, the obvious next step for these companies is to integrate their products with web hosting. At this point, the remaining hurdle for non-developers is deploying their creations to the cloud with built-in monetization.

I think deploying can already be done with the help of LLMs using docker and vpc's (e.g. hetzner and co.) rather easily.

What I struggle with is the legal overhead of e.g. collecting money for an app/website. I have a semi-finished app which I know I could delploy within a few hours but to collect money, living in Germany is a minefield from what I understand. I don't want my name made public with the app. GmbH (LLCs) cost thousands (?). The whole GDPR minefield, google-font usage scam etc. makes me hold back.

Googling/reddit only gives so much insights.

If someone has a good reference about starting a SaaS/App from within EU/Germany with all the legalities etc. I'd be super interested!


Just tell it to use your gcp/aws account using the cli, makes it infinitely powerful in terms of deployment. (Also, while I might miss some parts of programming that I have given to AI, I certainly don't miss working with clouds).

> Just tell it to use your gcp/aws account using the cli

Please don't.

People burning through their tokens allowance on Claude Code is one thing.

People having their agent unknowingly provisioning thousands of $ of cloud resources is something completely different.


This is also on the cloud providers for not giving us good tools to manage costs.

How about, "tell the agent to write instructions for cloud deployment with a cost estimate"

and specifically, the big companies, in a way that people notice. Claude Artifacts, AI Studio, etc. all kinda suck. If you have used Manus or connected your own CF, GCP, AWS, etc. you see how easy it could be if one of the big guys wanted it to be (or could get out of their own way).

the big boys probably don't want people who don't know sec deploying on their infra lol.


Deploying from Antigravity is as easy as say connecting the Firebase MCP [1] and asking it "deploy my app to firebase".

I dont think these are made for non-devs, Lovable and other which are built for non-devs already provide hosting.

We have been working on this, letting any coding agent define infrastructure so we can define it effortlessly: https://specific.dev. We aren't just targeting non-developers though, we think this is useful to anyone building primarily through coding agents.

Replit already does this

interestingly opencode's first product was an IaC platform... seems to be where this is all going.

> It cannot do this. It will spit out nonsense.

It's unbelievable how bad they failed at this. If you do the same with Claude or ChatGPT via simple web interface, they get miles ahead.


I was fascinated by this website when I was a teenager about 17 years ago. Finding out about the Ian Knot was a "wow" moment. I've used it ever since!

I remember downloading the iOS app on my iPod Touch and being able to create your own lace pattern by dragging your fingers. Incredible stuff!

I'm very happy that the website is still up and running, preserving the same aesthetic as it had years ago.


I haven't use Kimi CLI, but it works very well with OpenCode.

Also my experience. I've been going back and forth between Opus and Kimi for the last few days, and, at least for my CRUD webapps, I would say they are both on the same level.

Not disagreeing with you, but FYI you can roll back to the conversation before the 'clear context and proceed' with 'claude --resume'.

Do you use it only for code editing, or also for running bash commands? My experience is that it is very bad at the latter.

I have one memory that I can place between late 2 and early 3: my mum telling me I was going to have a brother. When he was born, I was 3 years and 6 months old.
